Review: Compact, Solid Lathe with Easy Adjustment and Smooth Variable Speed - I bought this benchtop lathe to replace my trusty but very old (50+ years) Craftsman lathe. I wanted a smaller lathe that could share my cabinet top with my Tormek grinder, and I absolutely wanted variable speed. This JET lathe fills the bill perfectly. With the well-designed tool rest, changing setups is a snap, and the variable speed control is very precise. The cast iron frame is very solid, so vibration is no issue at all. And it looks a whole lot better than my old lathe too. I can't think of a thing I'd change on this lathe.
Review: Perfect little bench top lathe for small turnings - I’ve been turning now for about 25 years . It is my favorite form of woodworking. I’ve owned several different lathes over the years with this little one I have 4 lathes. Anyway I got this lath because I was setting up a small hobby shop in my basement and just needed a small variable speed lathe. My other lathes in my main shop are just 2 large for this project. Got it set up and turned several pen blanks and bottle stoppers and a couple of lidded boxes to test it out . The 1/2hp motor is just fine for these type turnings. I’ll be making several small finials next for boxes to be made. It’s perfect for the beginner and an experienced turner who just wants a well made small lathe. Price on desertcart was $100 cheaper than other sellers. I considered other lathes as well but this one just fit my needs exactly. This is basically a smaller version of the 1221 vs Jet lathe also a nice lathe .. I’ve owned that lathe and really liked it as well but sold it to help pay for a larger upgraded lathe. So on those cold winter days I can go downstairs to my shop and not have to go outside and dress for winter just to go play in the shop . I’m retired so I spoiled myself with this fun shop. There are a few other really nice lathes in this price point that do a excellent job , I would recommend the HF Bauer 14x21 as another good lathe and a excellent price for what you Get. You can get a bed extension here on desertcart that fits perfectly and is same color. I also own this lathe and extension. It was just to big for my little hobby space or I would have moved it. I highly recommend the Jet 1015vs if it fits your budget and needs its worth the money.. use it as intended and you won’t be disappointed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality
*by R***N on June 14, 2024*

This lathe arrived today and I am very pleased. This is my 3rd lathe and I purchased it to replace my Laguna 12 16 midi. I also have a full size Nova. The quality of the Jet is outstanding. Quiet yet powerful and well machined. Superb performance and stable even without bolting to the workbench. Amazon shipping was fast and reliable. Not one blemish on the carton. Needless to say the machine was in pristine condition. Amazon had the best price available. Oh, marketing to first time turners, the owner's manual even explains turning techniques. Jet covers all the bases.
